The masses of the two moons are determined to be 2M2M for Moon AA and MM for Moon BB . It is observed that the distance between

Moon BB and the planet is two times that of the distance between Moon AA and the planet. How does force exerted from the planet on Moon AA compare to the force exerted from the planet on Moon BB

Answer:

 F_A = 8 F_B

Explanation:

The force exerted by the planet on each moon is given by the law of universal gravitation

        F = G \frac{m M}{r^{2} }

where M is the mass of the planet, m the mass of the moon and r the distance between its centers

let's apply this equation to our case

Moon A

the distance between the planet and the moon A is r and the mass of the moon is 2m

        F_A = G \frac{2m M}{r^{2} }

Moon B

        F_B = G \frac{m M}{(2r)^{2} }

         F_B = G \frac{m M}{4 r^{2} }

the relationship between these forces is

         F_B / F_A = \frac{1}{2 \ 4 } = 1/8

         F_A = 8 F_B

Urgent! Based on the diagram below, what color will each pigmented paper appear to be to an observer?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Example A will appear green, while Example B will appear greenish-blue.

Explanation:

The color of an object depend on which part of the visible light it reflects towards the observer. Visible light is made up of seven colors: Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and Red (VIBGYOR). If all the colors will be reflected object will appear white. If all the colors are absorbed the object appears black. In example A, only green color is being reflected so it will appear <em>Green</em>.

In example B, green and blue are being reflected so the object will appear a mix of green and blue. This color is cyan (greenish blue).

Why is a warm, tropical cumulus cloud more likely to produce precipitation than a cold, stratus cloud?
Lelu [443]

Explanation:

Warm,tropical cumulus cloud more likely to produce precipitation because they have high liquid content, strong and consistent updraft, these clouds are very thick. Moreover, they have large range of cloud droplet sizes. Whereas, stratus cloud have somewhat opposite characteristics, hence tropical cumulus clouds produce more precipitate.

The energy delivered to the resistive coil is dissipated as heat at a rate equal to the power input of the circuit. However, not
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

P(bat) = V²r/(R+r)²

Explanation:

Let the resistance of the coil be R

Internal resistance of the battery be r

Emf of the battery = V

Power dissipated in the internal resistance of the battery is normally given as P = I²r

where I is the current flowing in the circuit.

From Ohm's law,

V = I R(eq)

R(eq) = (R + r)

I = V/(R+r)

P = I²r

P = [V/(R+r)]²r

P = V²r/(R+r)²

Hope this Helps!!!

1. A metal ball has a mass of 20 g and a volume of 6 cm3.Find its density
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

density of the ball is 3.33 g/cc

Explanation:

As we know that the density is the ratio of mass and volume

here we know that

mass = 20 g

volume = 6 cubic cm

so we will have

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

\rho = \frac{20}{6} g/cm^3

\rho = 3.33 g/cm^3
